Our annual orange blend that highlights varying levels of skin contact, from carbonic maceration to extended fermentation, then aged in a mix of neutral oak. This vintage is a blend of Chardonnay from Pali Vineyard and Sauvignon Blanc from Vogelzang Vineyard. The varieties were harvested and fermented separately, spending approximately 12 days on the skins with native yeast before finishing fermentation in barrel. The wine was aged for six months in neutral oak, then bottled unfined and unfiltered with minimal sulfites.
Golden straw with a slight haze, ‘Still Life’ opens with dried apricot, quince, white peach, fruit blossom, and rosemary. Dried stone fruit and mango lead the palate with notes of sage, candied ginger, and lemon zest. A slight tannin grip and mouth-filling texture are balanced by sharp acidity for a savory, tart finish.
